Special Edition: Screen Time, Our Brains & Solutions


Listen Later

Has your relationship with technology changed during this pandemic? If you’re a parent, are your kids spending more time than ever before in front of screens? 

Today, we’re talking about the potential effects on our brains and well-being of living in a much-more digital world. We discuss the good and bad of what both adults and children are facing now as well as actual withdrawal symptoms we might all feel later.

You’ll hear expert insights and advice for real-life solutions from psychiatrist and addiction expert Dr. Keith Humphreys, as well as Dr. Jenny Radesky, a pediatrician who studies the use of mobile and interactive tech among children.

Be sure to tune-in again each weekday (M-F) for our regular episodes to get quick, unbiased news roundups in ~10 minutes!
